  A huge attractive force is the largest concern in designing a mechanical structure of undulators, in which an accurate control and high uniformity of the gap between the upper and lower magnetic girders are required. This problem is especially serious for in-vacuum undulators, in which the girders are located inside the vacuum chamber. We have proposed a new concept called a phase-combined undulator, which has intrinsically no magnetic force*. In this undulator, the magnetic forces acting on the girders locally head to the longitudinal axis instead of the attractive direction, and are actually canceled out in total. Numerical calculations have shown that the attractive force will be reduced down to a negligible level. Recently, we performed a proof-of-principle experiment to examine the feasibility of this undulator concept in terms of the force between the girders and magnetic field distribution, which will be reported in the conference.
